The first gate channel has a first length and the second gate channel has a second length greater than the first length. A gate dielectric layer is formed in the first and second gate channels. A first plurality of work function metal layers is formed on the gate dielectric layer of the first gate channel. A second plurality of work function metal layers is formed on the gate dielectric layer of the second gate channel. A barrier layer is formed on each of the first and second plurality of work function metal layers, and the gate dielectric layer. The multi-channel semiconductor device further includes metal gate stacks formed on of the barrier layer such that the barrier layer is interposed between the metal gate stacks and the gate dielectric layer.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide approaches for forming gate and source/drain (S/D) contacts. Specifically, the semiconductor device includes a gate transistor formed over a substrate, a S/D contact formed over a trench-silicide (TS) layer and positioned adjacent the gate transistor, and a gate contact formed over the gate transistor, wherein at least a portion of the gate contact is aligned over the TS layer. This structure enables contact with the TS layer, thereby decreasing the distance between the gate contact and the source/drain, which is desirable for ultra-area-scaling.
